Final Fight for 20 Smackers
Final Fight February 2nd, 2007
I was goofing off in the afternoon when I should have been working yesterday. Around 3:30 I spotted a listing on Craigslist for a Final Fight game. It was listed for $20, and said it wasn’t working and probably had a loose connection. By then the listing was a little over an hour old, and I figured I probably wouldn’t catch it in time. I had tried to get similar deals quick and was beat by other buyers. I called anyway, and it was still available!
I drove 2 hours to pick this puppy up in Winchester MA. Got it home, popped the back off, and found the loose connection.
I put the board back where it should be, adjusted the voltage on the power supply and it came up. The monitor needed to be adjusted. Once I did that, it worked perfectly. Not bad for $20!
Here are some pics of it in the game room, after I put a bulb in the marquee and coin return buttons.

Pretty sweet deal, and a fun game to boot (my wife and I actually beat that game a while back on our mame machine, I didn’t think she’d like it, but she ended up getting into it).
Man, your arcade is growing fast. You’ve got a lot of great machines there, and the room is looking great.
How come you haven’t posted about your Popeye yet? Gotta keep us updated

Hey Mark…thanks! It’s growing at a somewhat scary (but fun) pace. Not sure what I’m going to do when I run out of room.

Hi Chris,
I still have it, but I’m not interested in selling it.
